I want to report a long term non-business bad debt. 'Help' says to put it on Form 8949 but system won't let me put it on a Form 8949 saying all info on that form is generated from Sched D. But my loss is not on Sched D. So how do I report it??
System will not let me open a new empty Form 8949.

It sounds like you are attempting to work directly in forms mode in the desktop software. For this section, that is not a good idea and for the most part, you should not work directly in forms mode in TurboTax as many of these transactions cross-reference multiple forms and need all of them to work properly.

Dear @AnthonyC , that was very helpful, thank you! I had opened forms for Schedule D and From 8949, but it was not letting me do anything--so I searched this out, and your answer got the job done! Much gratitude to you!
